Anya Taylor-Joy Wants To Be In an Avatar Movie: ‘It’s My Dream To Be a Na’vi’
comingsoon.netThe franchise is one of the most beloved sci-fi series in Hollywood. Not only is star Anya Taylor-Joy a big fan of the franchise, but has hopes to one day step into it.
Speaking to Entertainment Tonight on the red carpet for her new movie The Gorge, Taylor-Joy responded to questions about a statement Sigourney Weaver said. Weaver said she hoped director James Cameron saw The Gorge, and put Taylor-Joy in an Avatar movie as a result.
Taylor-Joy said it would be a “dream” of hers to one day be a Na’vi, a species that lives on the moon of Pandora, and serve as the main characters throughout the Avatar films.
“It is my dream to be Na’vi. I watched that movie eight times in a row once,” Taylor-Joy said. “I was sad. “It’s a long movie, yeah… It was after a party, it was the perfect thing.”
While it’s unclear if Anya Taylor-Joy will ever get her chance to live out her dream of being a Na’vi, she’ll certainly have plenty of opportunities. The Avatar franchise has only seen two movies released, but director James Cameron has plans for several more.
